The judges declared Dogboe the winner, and he will now have another opportunity to compete for the world championship. It was a very close battle, with both fighters narrowly beating one another at various moments.

The former WBO super-bantamweight champion was defeated in the rematch a few months after losing his world title to Emmanuel Navarette in 2018.

Since then, Dogboe has travelled a far way back in his quest for a return, which saw the former world champion take a break from the sport.

As he strives to become a two-time world champion, Dogboe has his sights set on Josh Warrington, the IBF Featherweight champion.
